Turkish club blocking Aminu’s transfer

Nigeria U-20 star Umar Aminu has told AfricanFootball.com he has yet to move to newly promoted Turkish Super League side Balikesirspor as they are yet to meet the player’s valuation by his club Samsunspor.

It was reported that the former Wikki Tourists star has joined Balikesirspor, but Aminu told AfricanFootball.com that nothing has been agreed yet.

“There is a bid right now from the said team and others, but Samsunspor are asking for one million Euros which no team have been able to match. So, I am yet to move from Samsunspor,” Aminu maintained.

He also revealed that his club have cleared the money they owe him from last season.

It is believed that Balikesirspor have tabled a bid of about 400,000 Euros, which is far short of the million Euros Samsunspor want for the player.

Earlier in the close season, another Turkish club offered 750,000 Euros for the forward, but that was also turned down.

Aminu, 19, was a big hit for Samsunspor last season, when he scored seven goals in the Turkish second division.
